Nelson Funding Closes $5,060,000 Construction Loan for 14-Home Subdivision in Concord, CA

Last Updated: March 9, 2026

Nelson Funding is proud to announce the successful closing of a $5,060,000 construction facility to fund the ground-up development of 14 single-family residences (SFRs) in Concord, California. This transaction underscores our expertise in California homebuilder finance, providing a strategic capital solution in one of the East Bay’s most supply-constrained residential markets.

As a premier CA debt broker, Nelson Funding worked closely with the developer to secure a facility that offers both the leverage and the flexibility required to execute a multi-unit project of this scale. By bypassing traditional institutional hurdles, we provided the certainty of execution necessary to break ground on all 14 units simultaneously.


Transaction Highlights

  • Loan Amount: $5,060,000.00
  • Project Type: 14-Unit Single-Family Residential (SFR) Subdivision
  • Location: Concord, CA (Contra Costa County)
  • Loan Purpose: Ground-Up Vertical Construction
  • Key Financing Class: CA high leverage construction loans

Strategic Capital for Bay Area Homebuilders

Concord continues to be a high-demand submarket for families seeking modern housing with easy access to the BART and major Bay Area employment hubs. For this 14-home project, Nelson Funding utilized specialized California spec loans that eliminated the need for pre-sale requirements, allowing the builder to maximize their return by selling into a high-demand market upon completion.

Our team specialized in structuring CA construction loans for homebuilders that focus on:

  • High Leverage: Maximizing Loan-to-Cost (LTC) to preserve the developer’s liquidity for future site acquisitions.
  • Flexible Draw Schedules: Ensuring a steady flow of capital to keep construction timelines on track.
  • Competitive Pricing: Securing aggressive rates in a shifting interest rate environment through our extensive private and institutional lending network.

“The Bay Area housing market requires a lender that can move at the speed of development,” said Dylan Nelson, Founder and President of Nelson Funding. “Closing this $5.06M facility in Concord demonstrates our capacity as a leading CA debt broker to deliver CA high leverage construction loans that make sense for the developer. We are excited to see these 14 homes come to fruition and contribute to the vibrant Concord community.”
